ABSTRACT: Describes a study which updates earlier research in the overlapping and duplication of effort among today's library and information science (LandIS) abstracting and indexing (AandI) services if major services are evaluated. Also measures the overlap of LandIS secondary services with those from other science and social science fields in order to examine the relationship of the services to each other in the context of their coverage of LandIS literature. Uses a computer mapping technique to show the special relationship among all the secondary services analysed in the study. (AU)

Examines the accepted principles of controlled indexing, in published abstracting/indexing services and databases from the unusual aspect of the publisher's need to minimise production costs. Detailed information, concerning the production of Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA), is presented showing income and costs. Ways in which factors involved in controlled indexing may be seen to manifest themselves in production parameters are shown by plotting graphs of the numbers of abstracts and index pages against numbers of abstracts, for 77 individual issues of LISA. The close fit of the data to straight lines, with correlation coefficients approaching unity, provides a means of managing the size of individual issues to yield minimum Printing/Binding costs. The extended use of the Classification Research Group (CRG) classification notation to provide automation extraction of chain indexing strings and associated cross-references is described in detail. The gains in staff productivity resulting from this and other procedures are indicated with reference to the expansion in LISA's coverage between 1978 and 1984. (DB) |
